What does it mean

It has to be a sign of the up coming weather to see fog cover a valley in late afternoon. It has been a very mild few days. Yesterday was Distaff day at Peachtree Handspinner's guild. I planned on finishing my tea dyed yarn that I was spinning, but enjoyed the afternoon talking about spinning, weaving, dyeing and what projects to start this year. It's not wasted time talking to other spinners, I am absorbing everything that is said and done and storing it until needed in a future project. Every January I am stuck on which direction to take, what spinning and weaving projects to start, what fleece to skirt and wash, and what colors to dye. A farmer looks back on the past year to see what worked and what didn't and should you try it all again another year. What changes should you make? Or did things work out like you had planned. In a few weeks, when kidding and lambing rolls around there won't be time to think, I'll just do it all again and be thankful that I can.
